Heracles is confused by the Hydra because, despite being a formidable opponent, he discovers that every time he cuts off one of its heads, two more grow back in its place. This regenerative ability makes it difficult for him to defeat the creature using conventional methods. Additionally, the Hydra's ability to retreat into its lair adds to his frustration, as he must find a way to outsmart the beast rather than relying solely on his strength. This challenge highlights the theme of overcoming seemingly insurmountable obstacles through ingenuity and perseverance.
